Take an adventure with Joy around the world in her Puppet Theater! The message of the show is teaching children to be kind and to have cultural awareness. Kids get to act out their own super short puppet show in the end! Shows available for pre-school, K-2 grades, and even Junior High.

​

Joy has performed at the Children's Museum Houston, Woodlands Children's Museum, Ronald McDonald House, Juvenile Detention Center, Buckner Family Hope Center, CASA, local Houston parks, Houston Public Library, schools with Barbara Bush Literacy Foundation, and HISD schools throughout Houston and surrounding districts. She has performed in schools in Egypt and in Jordan.

"By far one of my most favorite author/illustrators and humans is Joy Saxton!  Her name is a huge clue to what she brings to every program through her generous, loving spirit and her gift of writing for and connecting with children—JOY!  Joy’s “around the world” series of picture books and puppet show completely captivate her audience, young and old. Children learn about the culture, customs, and language of these faraway lands…"
